A mobile augmented reality system for exhibition hall based on Vuforia

Mobile augmented reality (MAR) is a newly-emerging technology which covers the real scene with virtual information by utilizing the mobile terminal and thus enables users to have a better understanding for and interaction with the real environment. The article makes a research on the application of MAR technology in the smart exhibition hall, expounds the technological principles and key technologies of MAR in detail and introduces the Vuforia augmented reality framework. Meanwhile, it also designs and realizes the MAR system of the exhibition hall based on Vuforia, explains the systematic structure, recognition of the creating method of the target library and working process of the system, conducts application experiments on the system and then makes summarizations and analysis on the system effects. Finally, the article discusses the deficiencies on the system and its further work.
